Hi, I am just beginning my journey into C++. I have a book here and found in
the first tutorial "HelloWorld" that I had a backward warning. After some
research into the code I typed I found that there was a standard so I guess
this book is based on old code. It didn't take long and I found what I
needed to fix it. I am using Borland BuilderX personal edition, which gave
me the warning, but I also have a copy of Borland Turbo 1.01 and this old
code worked fine. Which I expected to happen.
I would like to know, should I buy a new book that is based on the standard
to learn from? or might it be better to keep going through this book, but
knowing that there is a standard and that there may be a few warnings here
and there? ...I am just thinking becuase I have 2 programs based on old and
new ways of writing C++ that it might be a good idea to know about both for
the learning process, as it may help for debugging later.. I don't know.
Thanks in advance,
Steve.
